A lot of you guys ask me how I've created all the video tutorials and all the video I do daily for Simple Programmer.
As you might know, I am one of the authors that have done the most amount of video tutorials for Pluralsight. I've done more than 50 courses for Pluralsight in a short amount of time.
Due to that fact, I've gained a LOT of experience when it comes to recording videos and being in front of the camera...
This is why I decided to record this video... Literally, a tutorial about creating video tutorials :)

The Everything Store Book: https://simpleprogrammer.com/everythingstore
"Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future" Book Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsARNW4Iz40
"The Everything Store" Book Review
Amazon was always something that caught my attention. I've always been amazed by how much this store has managed to become such an empire.
This is why I decided to take a shot ad The Everything Store.
Here is the book description extracted from Amazon:
"Amazon.com started off delivering books through the mail. But its visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, wasn't content with being a bookseller. He wanted Amazon to become the everything store, offering limitless selection and seductive convenience at disruptively low prices. To do so, he developed a corporate culture of relentless ambition and secrecy that's never been cracked. Until now. Brad Stone enjoyed unprecedented access to current and former Amazon employees and Bezos family members, giving readers the first in-depth, fly-on-the-wall account of life at Amazon. Compared to tech's other elite innovators--Jobs, Gates, Zuckerberg--Bezos is a private man. But he stands out for his restless pursuit of new markets, leading Amazon into risky new ventures like the Kindle and cloud computing, and transforming retail in the same way Henry Ford revolutionized manufacturing.
THE EVERYTHING STORE will be the revealing, definitive biography of the company that placed one of the first and largest bets on the Internet and forever changed the way we shop and read."

Exposing Yourself On Facebook: Should You Do It?
So, social media has definitely taken care of the whole web and changed the way we interact with each other in ways we've never seen before.
This can also be applied to the job searching/hiring process.
Nowadays, employers look at the social media profiles of their contestants to see how their life (off work) is. And this has serious implications when it comes to making the final decision.
In today's video I received a question from a reader asking if it was cool to expose your life on Facebook, as it was a dangerous thing to do and how employers perceive that thing.

The Gig Economy Will DOUBLE In The Next Years... What Now?
"A gig economy is an environment in which temporary positions are common and organizations contract with independent workers for short-term engagements.
The trend toward a gig economy has begun. A study by Intuit predicted that by 2020, 40 percent of American workers would be independent contractors. There are a number of forces behind the rise in short-term jobs. For one thing, in this digital age, the workforce is increasingly mobile and work can increasingly be done from anywhere, so that job and location are decoupled. That means that freelancers can select among temporary jobs and projects around the world, while employers can select the best individuals for specific projects from a larger pool than that available in any given area."
(Source: http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/gig-economy)
The gig economy is expected to DOUBLE its numbers in the next years.
This number raises some serious questions about how we can protect ourselves as a software developer and how earning money will change.
What can we expect from this gig economy? What will happen if this gig economy becomes bigger and bigger?

"Evolution 2.0" Book Review
Recently, I've come across this great book, I read, enjoyed it and I decided to create a review about it. However, I decided to read this book not just by judging that it was a good read, but because of what happened on my "Creationism Vs. Evolution" video.
Overall this was a good book and it will definitely be a good read for those who were interested in my video about Creationism Vs. Evolution.
Here is the book description extracted from Amazon
"Creation Evolution Debate: 150 Years Later, it Still Rages. Both Sides Are Half-Right. And Both Are Wrong.
Meet the opponents:
In one corner - Proponents of Intelligent Design like William Dembski, Stephen Meyer, and Michael Behe. Many defy scientific consensus, maintaining evolution is a fraud. They challenge decades of data in biology, chemistry, genetics and paleontology.
In the other corner - Devout Neo-Darwinists like Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, and Jerry Coyne, who insist evolution happens "willy nilly." Strangely, they sidestep the latest science, glossing over crucial questions and fascinating details. But what if both sides are half-right?
What if both sides are missing something important, clinging on to outdated views, theories, and interpretations?
There is a third way. Evolution 2.0 reveals experiments which prove that, while evolution is not a hoax, neither are changes random nor accidental. They are targeted, adaptive, and aware.
You will discover:
-Nearly every cell in your body can edit its own DNA, combating random destructive copying errors, charting a path for its transformation (page 82)
-Genes - far from being set in stone - actually change and adapt to the environment.
-How germs re-engineer their genetic destiny in real time by borrowing DNA from other organisms (page 94) (it's the reason why your doctor tells you to never stop taking antibiotics halfway through your prescribed course)
-How bacteria communicate, organize themselves into armies, then stage coordinated attacks on your immune system (page 110)
-Brand new species in 18 months, sometimes 24 hours - Through two empirically proven, reliable systems of natural genetic engineering (page 146)
-How and when cells generate new information and genes that did not exist before (page 150)
-How cells switch genes on and off in response to the environment, activating new traits that get passed from parents to kids (page 115)
-Many more amazing, scientifically verified facts that not only further technology and medicine, but fuel our sense of wonder at life itself. If creationism seemed to be leaving out important details, here you'll the missing clues.
You will discover fascinating real-time evolutionary lab experiments by an eminent scientist in the 1940s, whose work was recognized in 1983 by a Nobel prize & US postage stamp, but then... is still rarely mentioned in school science curricula.
This book explores 70+ years of under-reported evolutionary science. Evolution 2.0 chronicles bestselling author Perry Marshall's 10-year journey of in-depth research. As an Electrical Engineer, author of an Ethernet book and world-renowned business consultant, Mr. Marshall connects the dots in a new refreshing way. He tackles hard questions about evolution with precision, making it clear when information is proven with hard data and when it can only be inferred.
This book will open your eyes and transform your thinking about life, evolution, and creationism. You'll gain a deeper appreciation for our place in the universe. You'll the see the world around you as you've never seen it before: adaptive, efficient, and incredibly elegant."

GET EARLY ACCESS TO ZERO DEBIT CARD: https://zerofinancial.com/EARLY62362
"Zero" Debit Card 3% Cashback FULL REVIEW
As you know, I think that financial education is very important for all people, not just software developers. Understanding how money works can make or break your life.
So, adopting good financial practices is really important. Credit cards are a villain in most cases, when it comes to finances. The chances of having you overspending are great and debt is on the way if you don't know how to use it.
Recently, I came across a very good option, which is Zero debit card. Here is what Zero is all about:
"Better than a debit card.
Better than a (traditional) credit card.
We don't believe people should be required to take on risky forms of debt, even just for a month, to get cash back on their spending. With Zero, there's no more keeping up with credit card balances, bills, and due dates, all in the name of chasing down rewards.
Acts like a debit card
Make deposits and your balance in the Zero app goes up. Spend on your Zerocard and your balance goes down. Every transaction is reflected right away and you don't run up monthly bills that you have to worry about.
Earns credit card rewards
Depending on which level Zerocard you have, you'll earn 1.0% to 3.0% on all your spending. And there's no need to jump through any hoops - Zero deposits your cash back automatically at the end of every month."
So, is this really a good option? YEAH! definitely!
